Is Advantage Flea Medicine Any Good?

If your dog cat, rabbit, or what have you has ever gotten fleas or ticks, you probably know all about the inconvenience. Actually, the whole thing is a lot like a nightmare! I had to apply advantage flea medicine not once, not twice, but three separate times before I could get all of the infestation cleared up. And that is not even to mention all of the washing the carpets, laundering all of the bedding and clothes, washing the floors, and of course flea-dipping my scrawny, complaining cat. It was a real nightmare, even with the advantage flea medicine.

Although the advantage flea medication was supposed to naturally take care of things in one application, it did not. Advantage flea medicine is basically a small liquid capsule that you can empty on your pet. It is supposed to last for weeks, and spread around as your cat or dog moves about the room, killing all, or almost all of the fleas. In reality, within a week of using the advantage flea medicine, the pests were back almost as strong as ever. We had to compliment the advantage flea medicine with a flea bomb, as well as all of the cleaning, and it still barely did the trick. Never again will I let Fluffy out of my sight for even a minute.

Of course, advantage flea medicine is not really the only way to go as you can imagine, but it does seem to work a little better than a flea collar. I do not know if the fleas have gotten stronger, or if Fluffy is just unusually tasty, but I do know that the flea collars that I have tried have done almost nothing to help me out with my flea problem. It is a shame, but it seems like every time my poor little darling cat is silly or unlucky enough to get in the path of some flea, it takes weeks and weeks, as well as a huge bunch of toxic chemicals just to solve the problem.

The advantage flea medicine was a little bit of an improvement, but it a shame to have to douse my cat and my apartment over and over again with that dirty junk just to kill off a couple of insects. I wish there was some really good alternative to advantage flea medicine, flea bombs, and all of the other junk that did not require all of that poison, but I have never even heard of one, whether or not it does exist.
